Moneca Delain
Interview conducted by Craig Byrne - KryptonSite Webmaster -
March 2004
Moneca
Delain has been an accomplished musician, dancer, and actress.
She appeared in the February 2004 episode "Velocity"
playing a bad girl who liked to hang out with the bad boys of
the drag racing circuit, being the "beautiful women"
representative to keep Pete Ross in that "world."
Moneca
was kind enough to do an interview for K-Site and talk about
her experience in doing the show. The interview follows...
KRYPTONSITE:
What was the audition process like for Smallville?
MONECA:
I had auditioned for Smallville several times before
for various other roles and I guess I was just destined to play
Mara in the episode Velocity. So Fast & Furious! It rocked!!!
I mean, how cool is that? To be the tough, ass-kicking chick
who drops the flag. Not to mention, standing in between those
two cars was a very exhilarating and thrilling sensation. My
heart was racing, never mind the cars.
K-SITE:
What was the mood like on the Smallville set?
MONECA:
The mood on the Smallville set was actually very
calming in comparison to other sets I've worked on. They have
some of the best people in the industry working on Smallville
and lets face it, it's a hit show. I'm a fan too!
K-SITE:
Do you have any particular funny stories about being there?
MONECA:
Actually, I do have a cute little story. You know in the
beginning of the episode where Pete gets out of the car and
the crowd gathers around and Jason Dante and I greet him. Well,
during one take Sam couldn't hear the director yell action and
everyone gathered around like they're supposed to and Sam was
still sitting in the car, looking through the window mouthing
things like do I get out of the car now? now? And that went
on for a minute or so. I guess you had to be there for that
one. But the take that did make it was the one right after that.
And I think I was still giggling through it . I don't know...
Check it out the next time you see the episode. It was quite
funny.
